Hi,
I was in a car accident in '07. I have a compound fractures in right wrist and ankle. I have plates and screws in both places. Talking about pain. when it rain the pain will let me know. I do too much I'm in pain. I'm currently trying to find like a caregiver to come and do cleaning and laundry and food shopping. I can't find anyone who will do it. I tried different agencies and since my health insurance does not cove this. I wound up doing it and take me a few days to get it done.
I was back East visiting my family. When it was cloudy, raining, or cold I would flare up. Those days make me tired and I can't do much. I'm currently taking Oxyodone 10/325 mg. I only take it if I need it. When I'm home (in Arizona) I don't have to take it often since so darn hot here now. I was seeing a pain management Dr. I may go back to Rheumatologist. I was seeing one and thought the pain management Dr. was better. but it's not. Beside I have Osteoarthritis as well. (run in my family).
